Hayden Carruth was born in Waterbury, Connecticut, in 1921 and lived for many years in northern Vermont. His first book of poems, The Crow in the Heart, was published in the late 1950s. Since then he's published nearly thirty books, mainly of poetry in a variety of styles, but also one novel, and several books of essays and criticism. He's written trenchantly on subjects such as suicide and his great love, jazz music. 



In this program, American poet and editor Brian Henry discusses Carruth's writing and William Smith reads a selection of the poems.
